This website is more than just a Spanish-English dictionary. It contains grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation activities, as well as a 'word of the day' with examples of use. There are also extensive vocabulary lists and grammar lessons from a comprehensive range of Spanish text books along with quizzes to test understanding.
Structure and features
On the 'SpanishDict' website, students can explore:
- grammar topics, clearly organised and explained
- vocabulary lists relating to students' interest, including the World Cup, Mexican food and tourism and travel
- a 'tricky pronunciations' section featuring videos of fluent speakers and dialectical differences
- interesting words from the extensive online dictionary.
Activities include quizzes to test grammar and vocabulary knowledge.
Some themes on this website are for more mature audiences, so teacher or family discretion should be used when supporting students with this resource.
For teachers
The grammar sections on this website are clearly presented and explained, and act as helpful resources to teach or revise key points. Students can explore vocabulary lists relating to topics of personal interest and use these as the basis of more extended writing or speaking activities.
